Dead Milkmen - Beach Song
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse:
[-----]
[C]Sand is hurting my tender [F]feet[F]
The air smells like rotting fish and solarcaine
I hate the people on the beach
With their towels and umbrellas, they're so insane
Joe seems to make up the strumming as he goes along. Sometimes
one strum of the F, sometimes 2... It doesn't really matter that
much.
Chorus:
------
[G]I don't wanna be on the beach! No![C] ([C]x2)
I don't wanna be on the beach!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No!
I hate my girlfriend, she-she-she
Lies on the beach like a barrier reef
Soaking up the stupid sun
While the radio is blasting fun, fun, fun
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun! (x2)
I don't wanna be on the beach!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun! No!
(x2)
This is no way to spend a summer
I've got sand caked on my feet
I gave my ice cream to a shark
And now I've got nothing to eat
No fun!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun! No!
I don't wanna be on the beach!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun.
End on G.
Mike's addition:
---------------
Bucky's tab was missing something. During the verse "This is no way
to spend the summer..." there is a solo kind of thing, and it is played
once before with no words. I tabbed it, and it took a bit too, so here
goes:
(1:07)
E----------------------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------------------|
G--------------------------0---2-0-------------------------------|
D--------------------0-2-3---------3--2-3-3-3--2-2-1-1-----------|
A-3--3--3-2-3--0-2-3-----------------------------------3--3-2-3--|
E----------------------------------------------------------------|
(1:14)
E-------------------------------------|
B-------------------------------------|
G---------------------------------0---|
D-0--2--0-------------------0-2-3-----|
A----------3----------0-2-3-----------|
E-------------3-3-3-3-----------------|
This comes at the time with no words, the times with words are played at
1:28 and 1:35.
